Wunderwaffe - is just what makes game balance terrible. There was enough brainless comeback moves such as struggling until IS-2/KT/JT/ISU. That could be just another one. Do we really need it?

I actually like this idea. It's not overpowered considering the changes made by Karbinder

What if it neutralized a sector when used, as well?

afaik there is 0 point in giving it any pen over ~~600 as nothing that i know of has armour that high. 1k pen just means it always pens and covers feature wunder waffles.

onto the idea as a whole.
i support the idea of making railway a single, more powerful shot both for realism and to distinguish it from all the other things in the game that use the same shell. with that said, the stats you posted would make it OP bullshit. it wouldn't quite have the issues that air supremacy have because none of the allied teams tech outside the base sector.

i'm also ok with the current railway global because it looks cool, it's relatively cheap (it's ~~50mun less than similar strikes without doing a whole lot less damage) and it has a REALLY short cooldown. it does have several strong draw backs though as it's not cheap enough to spam if you spent munitions on anything else, it has a long calldown time, a lot of scatter and the last two shells, and it'll only kill a medium tank on a direct hit.

Describing it as "OP" would really only be relevant if facing against a sim city, which in my opinion should be frowned upon.

High CP requirements, high munition cost. If the game goes on for too long, this should be the tie braker.

So, just drag out the game and 1 click win?

Pre-nerf scavenge arty comes to mind here. In case nobody remembers: cause a full retreat on some USF player, then wipe his troops and complete base - or just the latter at any time, whatever floats your boat.

Though chaining these mini-nukes in large team games would be fun fun fun (not)

ahahaha)))))



Interesting idea to bring back a V1-type offmap. Maybe someone'll make a mod for a test
